The number of children playing:

10-16

Equipment:

The story »behind the game«

We play it in the school club.

Instructions / rules:

The children are in one big circle. One child is in the middle holding a ball. He shouts a name of another player (e.g. Lucy) and throws the ball in the air. Then all the children have to run away, but Lucy has to catch the ball. When she does it, she screams »STOP« and everyone must stay where they are. Lucy can make 2 jumps towards any child and hit his/her legs. If she does it, they make the circle again and they continue the game.
